I'm sitting here in my table of menace
my blood runs cold
watching the grease dripping over their faces
it seems so bold
to be laughing at this little bump in the road
when the sun grows cold
I'm a-lonely, I'm a-lonely in this crowded room
with no place to go

You save the world every time you walk in the room, what you do
you alone could save my soul
just your smile makes me think that I could kill the king, kill the kings
just your laugh makes me know that I could kill the king, kill him

I took off your already overstuffed faces
with a beggar's hold
I'm just like them and they just like me
and we don't want to know
when all the king's horses and all the king's men
finally stand down
well what will we be with nothing to fear
just an empty shell, but

You save the world every time you walk in the room, what you do
you alone could save my soul
just your laugh makes me think that I could kill the king, kill him
just your smile makes me know I can
I'm holding the sword
brave my soul
I'm coming home
all that I am
I need you more
save me soul
I'm coming home

Come on, come on, now, now
come on, come on, now, now
burn this down
come on, come on, now, now
come on, come on, now, now
down to the ground
I chop off the already overstuffed faces
his rage has grown

Save the world every time you walk in the room is what you do
you alone could save my soul
just your smile makes me think that I could kill the king, kill the king
just your laugh makes me know that I could kill the king, kill the king, kill him

Yeah
yeah
come on, come on, now, now
come on, come on, now, now
burn him down
yeah
come on, come on, now, now
come on, come on, now, now
burn him down
come on, come on, now, now
come on, come on, now, now
down to the ground
